"Danger is my middle name," said Austin Powers, the man of mystery of international scale. But what is valued by superagents and intelligence agencies is not at all suitable for computer services, where boredom is much better than dangers. Istio, along with OpenShift and Kubernetes, turns the deployment of microservices into a truly dull and predictable affair — and that’s wonderful. This and […]
Bitwise Works has completed the port of the GCC 9.2 compiler suite for the OS/2 operating system and its derivative platforms, ArcaOS and eComStation. Previously, GCC 4.9.2 was offered for ArcaOS, while GCC 8.3.0 was available in the ports for OS/2. It is noted that the ability to use GCC 9 will allow the community to adapt more applications and libraries for use on OS/2, including […]
Is it possible to survive using only the capabilities of TTY? Here’s my brief story about how I struggled with TTY, wanting to achieve normal functionality from it. Background Recently, on my old laptop, the graphics card failed. It failed so badly that I couldn't even start the installer for any OS. Windows crashed with errors while installing basic drivers. The installation of Linux was downright impossible […]
Hello, Habr users! In anticipation of the new enrollment for the course 'DevOps Practices and Tools', we have prepared a translation of interesting material for you. This article serves as a brief introduction to Loki. The Loki project is supported by Grafana and is aimed at centralized log collection (from servers or containers). The primary source of inspiration for Loki was Prometheus, with the idea of applying its approaches to log management: […]
When discussing Google's initiative to unify the HTTP User-Agent header content, a developer from Kiwi Browser pointed out the persisting HTTP header 'X-Client-Data' in Chrome, which potentially violates the existing General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) in the European Union. During the discussion, Google's duality of action was also criticized, as the company promotes methods for blocking hidden identification and tracking actions […]
Developers of the Node.js server-side JavaScript platform have released patch versions 13.8.0, 12.15.0, and 10.19.0, which fix three vulnerabilities: CVE-2019-15606 — improper handling of optional whitespace characters (OWS) following the value in an HTTP header; CVE-2019-15605 — the possibility of an HRS (HTTP Request Smuggling) attack, allowing insertion into the content of other requests processed in the same stream between frontend and backend) through transmission […]
Continuing the theme 'What is your evidence?', let’s look at the problem of mathematical modeling from a different perspective. Once we have confirmed that the model corresponds with the harsh truth of life, we can address the main question: 'What, exactly, do we have here?'. When creating a model of a technical object, we generally want to ensure that this object will meet our expectations. This is exactly why we conduct […]
"If on the elephant's cage you read the inscription 'buffalo', do not trust your eyes" - Kozma Prutkov. In the previous article about model-oriented design, it was shown why an object model is necessary, and it was proven that without this object model, one can only speak of model based design as marketing nonsense, senseless and ruthless. But with the appearance of an object model, knowledgeable engineers always […]
I have often read the opinion that keeping the RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol) port open on the Internet is quite unsafe and should not be done. Instead, RDP access should be provided either through a VPN or only from specific 'white' IP addresses. I administer several Windows Servers for small companies, where I was tasked with ensuring remote access […]
This article is dedicated to Python Gateway — an open-source community project for the InterSystems IRIS data platform. This project allows orchestrating any machine learning algorithms developed in Python (the primary environment for many Data Scientists), utilizing numerous ready-made libraries to quickly create adaptive, robotic AI/ML analytical solutions on the InterSystems IRIS platform. In this article, I will show how […]
A significant new release of the multi-protocol client for instant messaging Miranda NG 0.95.11 has been published, continuing the development of the Miranda program. Supported protocols include Discord, Facebook, ICQ, IRC, Jabber/XMPP, SkypeWeb, Steam, Tox, Twitter, and VKontakte. The project's code is written in C++ and is released under the GPLv2 license. The program only supports operation on the Windows platform. One of the most noticeable changes in the new […]
The project inlinec has proposed a new method for inline integration of C code into Python scripts. C functions are defined directly in one file with Python code, highlighted by the decorator ‘@inlinec’. The consolidated script is executed as-is by the spython interpreter and parsed using the codec mechanism provided in Python, allowing the integration of a parser for converting the script […]
